Promethea Jones

A Crack in the Egg of Time

A novel by Ninian Lucas

When aliens land on Halloween night, a witch in the Appalachian mountains is the only person on Earth who saw it coming.

Promethea Jones runs Seraph Valley, a laid-back coven of witches, hackers, and weirdos outside Asheville. The Old Ones say humanity's time is running out, and they're offering a way forward: new worlds, new bodies, a chance to start over.

To get there she'll have to deal with aliens, inner demons, Texan separatist kidnappers, the FBI, her billionaire ex-boyfriend, corporate espionage, robot bartenders, Nazi karma, and the fundamental nature of human consciousness. She holds it together for love of her daughter, with the help of her friends.

A story about what it costs to build heaven when hell keeps underbidding you.
